Chapter 51 Where is the flute sound?
Although Qu Yuanyuan is so entangled with An Yi, Mrs. Qu doesn't like An Yi very much because she feels that there is no normal person in the An family. Speaking of which, she is still a century-old family, An Baoliang is still a Jinshi. How could she let An Yi go to practice medicine and run a shop to pay off her debts to support her family? I won't say that An You, who is only over three years old, is shameless. There is also a Xue family, who is also a scholarly family. How could she bear to show her daughter to show up as a mother? According to Mrs. Qu, Qu Yuanyuan shouldn't have had more contact with girls like An Yi, who are so worried about her, so as not to bring people to the wild.
But An Yi is Qu Yuanyuan's life-saving benefactor and has a good reputation outside. An Baoliang and Qu County Magistrate are colleagues. They live next door to the two families. They look up all day long and don't look down. Although she doesn't refuse to receive An Yi, she never likes her very much. So every time An Yi comes to see Qu Yuanyuan, she will never wave to Mrs. Qu if she is not necessary.
According to An Yi's idea, as long as she lifted Mrs. Qu Yuanyuan would definitely not force her to play the flute again. But Qu Yuanyuan said, "Don't worry, my mother went to Guanyin Temple to pray for my grandfather. She left this morning, and it took seven or eight days to come back. I wanted to ask someone to come and play in the morning, but I heard from the door that you had taken Mrs. Lan to ride out a horse a long time ago. Blow quickly, blow quickly!"
An Yi had no choice but to hold the bamboo flute and try the sound, and played a song "Plum Blossom Inscription".
Qu Yuanyuan's eyes shone, she pulled her sleeve and said, "Good sister, please teach me."
An Yi dipped Qu Yuanyuan's little nose and said with a smile: "Will you play the shepherd boy song you taught you last time?" If she hadn't seen this bamboo flute here at Qu Yuanyuan that day and was pushed and played another song, she would have forgotten that she had this skill.
Because this skill brings her all bad memories, when she picked up the bamboo flute, she will remember that when she and that person were in spring, under the stars in the sky, on the night of autumn and moon, one played the flute and the other played the piano in the plum blossom forest in winter, one responded and one joined together. Who wouldn’t praise them for “the couple of gods and fairies”?
An Yi sneered, and the man and the woman's children were probably running all over the ground. Who would still remember her?
Seeing that her face was depressed and a little worried, Qu Yuanyuan quickly pulled her sleeve and whispered: "Sister An, if you are busy, forget it."
The little girl is very good at talking. She doesn't say An Yi is unhappy, but she says she is busy. An Yi has no personal girls, only a few people who are inexplicably far away from her, refuse to be intimate with her, and is jealous of her cousin who is loved by her grandfather. She can't hate her soft and cute little girl like Qu Yuanyuan, and she must regain her smile and teach her to play the flute.
The sound of the flute reached outside the wall, making a person stunned.
Xie Mantang was wearing cloth clothes and wearing woolen shoes, and drove a donkey cart by the front of Changli County. He suddenly heard the familiar sound of flutes and was stunned.
Liu Qi, dressed as a young wife, leaned over from the donkey cart and waved his forehead in a coquettish manner, saying, "What's wrong with the boss?"
Xie Mantang shook his head: "It's nothing, I just think the sound of the flute sound is familiar."
It was a few years ago. He accompanied his mother at home to watch plum blossoms in Lion Mountain in Beijing. He heard someone playing the flute deep in the plum tree, and it was the song. Because they played it so well, the mother and son couldn't help but be curious about the person playing the flute. So he waited outside the plum tree and saw a beautiful young woman in her prime accompanied by a handsome young scholar. The young woman was holding a tube of jasper flute in her hand and talking and laughing with the scholar.
The person playing the flute was a married woman and could not get along with him, which disappointed him. Later, he accidentally learned that the woman was dead. He thought he would never have the chance to hear such a wonderful flute sound again from now on, and he was quite regretful. Unexpectedly, he could hear the familiar flute sound again here today, which surprised him.
Liu Qi covered his pink veil with a blood-red lips covered with rouge, threw a charming look at him, and said in a sweet voice: "You're just afraid you heard it wrong."
Xie Mantang glanced at him lightly.
Liu Qi hurriedly said, "I don't mean that, how dare I doubt your ability to remember everything you see and hear?"
Xie Mantang then withdrew his gaze, sucked the donkey, and the donkey cart went forward. Liu Qi sat back on the donkey cart and said gossip: "This flute is so good, it seems to be a guide from a famous teacher?" Seeing that Xie Mantang ignored him, he said: "Who did you listen to before?"
Xie Mantang glanced at him coldly and said, "This trip went smoothly. I think you look pretty like a woman. Should you pretend to be a pregnant woman next time?"
Liu Qi immediately shut his mouth in horror and waved his hand hard at him.
Only then did Xie Mantang withdraw his gaze with satisfaction and concentrate on rushing the train.
Liu Qi looked back at the Changli County Government Office in the dusk and thought to himself, isn't that little girl named An just lives here? She turned around and asked her who the flute player was. It's not easy for a song to remember Mr. Xie for a few years. You must know that Mr. Xie is still unwilling to get married in his twenties, and he is not interested in any woman on weekdays. Everyone secretly guessed whether he was not good enough or what. I don't know what expression would be like for everyone to squeeze him like this? Seeing that he is still vicious but not vicious. Liu Qi became more and more happy and couldn't help but look at Xie Mantang.
Xie Mantang felt his eager gaze and looked over with some confusion. Liu Qi was afraid of being seen and was asked to be troubled later, so he quickly smiled at him in a pleasing way and retracted back to the donkey cart.
An Yi was afraid that she would go back too early, so Chen Zhishan didn't leave, so she followed Qu Yuanyuan for dinner. She got up and said goodbye when she saw it. Santa Lan opened the door for her and then gestured to her. An Yi said in confusion: "What's wrong?" Could it be that Chen Zhishan hasn't left yet? She had been staying for too long.
Mrs. Lan touched her ear and whispered: "Auntie Ji has it. The pulse that came out of Mr. Chen just now has been three months old."
An Yi was stunned. Didn’t she say she wouldn’t have a baby? Unexpectedly, she became pregnant. Geely had also asked Wu Jing to take her pulse and treat it. Wu Jing once told her clearly that she had been injured before and was rarely pregnant. Geely didn’t tell her about this, but she could not hide it from An Yi.
